With the recent move to our new premises we have had to downsize the range of books in the Media Centre, however we hope we have selected a large enough range of the most popular books for you. Nathalie and Marie-Anne will be delighted to assist you with finding the right book for you!

We welcome your feedback and look forward to receiving new titles in the next few weeks - direct from France!

In the meantime, the Alliance Française de Sydney has started a Book Club! Have a look at our regular events page for further details. The first book to read is L'Ignorance by Milan Kundera!
